  The broom described in Patent Document 1 is strong in strength because the sweep portion and the handle are fixed with resin, but conversely, the mounting main body portion is damaged due to excessively strong fixing, and the strength due to deterioration of the resin over time. There was a problem that became weak. Moreover, since the base end part of the sweeping part is screwed into the inner cylinder in the broom described in Patent Document 2, problems such as aging deterioration of the resin and the like disappear, but the inner cylinder directly supports the handle, When a heavy object is swept, there is a problem that the load concentrates on the inner cylinder of the pipe-like mounting main body and the part that supports the handle, and there is a risk of breakage.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and even if the broom is handled roughly or a heavy object is swept, the mounting body will be distorted and the elongated hair will come out, or the mounting body will be damaged. The object is to provide a highly durable broom that will not be damaged.

That is, the present invention includes the following ideas.

  Hereinafter, an embodiment relating to a broom according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. However, the present invention is not intended to be limited to the configurations described in the embodiments and drawings described below.

<First embodiment>
FIG. 1 is a front view of a broom 10 according to a first embodiment to which the present invention is applied. FIG. 2 is an enlarged perspective view of the broom 10 of the first embodiment to which the present invention is applied. FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line XX ′ of FIG. 1 showing the structure of the handle portion 3, the mounting main body portion 1 and the sweep portion 2 of the broom 10 of the first embodiment to which the present invention is applied. . Details of the broom 10 of the present invention will be described below.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the broom 10 of the present invention includes an attachment main body portion 1, a sweep portion 2, a handle portion 3, and a reinforcing material 4. The attachment main body 1 of the broom 10 has a sweeping part attachment part 1a having a lower surface opened at the lower part and a cylindrical handle insertion part 1b at the upper part. The material of the attachment main body 1 may be any material as long as strength is ensured and excellent in durability. Examples thereof include a material processed from a resin such as vinyl chloride or a metal plate such as iron.

  The sweep portion 2 is formed by bundling elongated hairs 5. As shown in FIG. 3, the base end portion 2a of the sweep portion 2 is inserted into the sweep portion mounting portion 1a and fixed with staples 6 or the like. Since the other end of the sweep unit 2 is an end for sweeping dust and the like, the sweep unit 2 is cut into a fan shape or a straight line. This makes it possible to clean the cleaning surface such as the floor surface cleanly. The elongated hairs 5 of the sweep portion 2 may be any material that is flexible and excellent in durability, and examples thereof include thermoplastic resins such as polypropylene resin and plant materials such as bamboo, straw, and grass. It is done.
